Ella Langley and Riley Green brought their red-hot duet, “You Look Like You Love Me,” to the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday evening.
Fallon declared the song “my jam right now” as he introduced the Alabama natives to the stage.
Before delivering the famous opening verse of the song, Langley took a moment to dedicate their performance to “all the men and women who are currently and who have served this country” in honor of Veterans Day.
Sporting a black mini dress with a pop of gold across the chest and black stiletto boots, Langley kicked off the performance with the spoken-word first verse as Green, who donned a cowboy hat, jeans, and a pearl snap button-up, plucked his guitar.
Green effortlessly delivered his verse before they came together on the chorus singing, “Excuse me/ You look like you love me/ You look like you want me/ To want you to come on home/ And baby, I don’t blame you/ For lookin’ me up and down across this room/ I’m drunk and I’m ready to leave/ And you look like you love me.”
While on set in New York City, the tour mates were surprised with plaques celebrating the single’s platinum status.
Their performance came as “You Look Like You Love Me” continues to dominate the charts. Currently, the song is sitting inside the Top 10 at country radio and is still climbing.
Additionally, the song is nominated for Musical Event of the Year at the upcoming 58th Annual CMA Awards. The artists are vying for the coveted title alongside “Cowboys Cry Too” – Kelsea Ballerini (with Noah Kahan), “I Had Some Help” – Post Malone (Feat. Morgan Wallen), “I Remember Everything” – Zach Bryan (ft. Kacey Musgraves), and “Man Made A Bar” – Morgan Wallen (feat. Eric Church).
Hosted by Luke Bryan, Peyton Manning, and Lainey Wilson, “Country Music’s Biggest Night” will take place on Wednesday, November 20 live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. The show will air on ABC and be available the next day on Hulu.
“You Look Like You Love Me” is featured on Ella Langley’s deluxe version of her debut album, Still Hungover. The newly released extended version of the project includes two new songs, “Girl You’re Taking Home” and “20-20” as well as fan favorites “Weren’t For The Wind” and “Made It Out of Mexico (Acoustic).”
Langley and Green will return to the road together in 2025 on Green’s Damn Country Music Tour. The trek, which sold over 100,000 tickets in just eight hours, kicks off on March 27, 2025, and runs through August 23, 2025.
In addition to touring with Green, Langley will headline her Still Hungover Tour, which sold out in just 24 hours. She recently announced 17 additional dates for the headlining run.
